This review discusses the effects of oestrogen on skin ageing and highlights the need for large-scale clinical trials to evaluate postmenopausal oestrogen use, reporting no new findings.

This article reviews the use of dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy in therapeutic follow-up, noting that videodermatoscopy is a reliable tool despite potential cost issues with high magnifications.

This research suggests that the barley protein RACB supports cell polarity functions rather than interfering with immunity, as it aids nucleus positioning during fungal attack rather than affecting early immune responses.

This study found that topical finasteride and flutamide both significantly reduced sebaceous gland growth and decreased prostatic weights in hamsters, indicating systemic effects despite local application.

This guideline provides recommendations for prescribing systemic testosterone to women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder, emphasizing safe dosing, monitoring, and the need for informed consent despite regulatory challenges.

This report describes cases of increased hair loss and scalp sunburns in patients using 3% minoxidil and 0.01% tretinoin, suggesting caution with tretinoin use on sunny days.

This article discusses the potential benefits of platelet-rich plasma injections in ovarian tissue to improve reproductive outcomes in IVF for older individuals and proposes a mechanism to enhance embryo ploidy rescue, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.

This study discusses the role of CD8+ T-cell and interferon γ signaling in vitiligo's pathogenesis and notes that JAK inhibitors, which are FDA-approved for other autoimmune diseases, may offer a potential treatment path by blocking this pathway.

This study found that capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles conjugated with antibodies selectively released a dye when exposed to finasteride, with low detection limits and stable performance even after storage.

This article discusses recent advancements in treatments for psoriasis, including new drug approvals and innovative therapeutic approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the aging-related changes in hair structure and function, and examines various treatments like light therapy, minoxidil, and finasteride aimed at mitigating hair thinning and loss, but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that a new topical treatment using ketotifen-loaded microneedles, designed for prolonged release, significantly reduced inflammatory markers in an animal model of allergic conjunctivitis, suggesting enhanced therapeutic delivery and sustained ocular benefits.

Using buccal mucosa for hypospadias repair in children is effective and reduces complications.

This study explores how SARS-CoV-2 interacts with endocrine organs and highlights specific endocrine molecules that help explain the progression and outcomes of COVID-19, especially in patients with certain metabolic conditions.

This study suggests that extract from Musa paradisiaca unripe fruit may promote hair growth in mice, indicating potential as a hair growth treatment.

In this animal study, petroleum ether and ethanolic extracts of Abrus precatorius seeds appeared to reverse androgen-induced alopecia in male albino rats by inhibiting the 5α-reductase enzyme, similar to finasteride.

This review discusses various theories of skin aging and the importance of using professional and at-home skincare solutions, but offers no new empirical findings.

In this study, treatment with finasteride altered the expression patterns of antioxidant enzymes in the epididymis of rats, potentially affecting its protective function for spermatozoa.
